wait... so they are still calling people based on list order ? Also are phone calls getting made instead of letters being sent out ? 

1st Premployment Appointment invitation is received by an actual physical letter in the mail, followed by a possible phone call, text and/or email. 

2nd Premployment Appointment invitation is received primarily by an Email and followed by a phone call.

I feel the same way also I check my phone every 5 minutes to see if I get a text or call

Nothing to be upset about, previous generation candidates would sometimes wait years to be called for premployment. 

Exam 8611 was taken by candidates only a year ago, those who passed are lucky that they started calling for premployment so soon. 

Not to mention it's only been a little over a month since they started calling for premployment and they are already half way thru the list. 

Continue living and breathing, everyone will get an opportunity.

Wise words. I agree. Be patient. I know it’s sucks waiting.

Mine is 33#. All day wasn't available.  Probably missed it 

That’s real close to mine. You probably will get called first thing next week if they don’t make phone calls on weekend. I’m not sure. I hope everyone gets called back soon.

Got today a call. For Wednesday at 7.30 medical and etc.  For considering July 15 classes.  

Josh , how was medical? And was you invited for July 15 as well ? And you chose signals? Why?

I meant July 15th. Not July 8th. Medical was cool , got scared tho because they told me I failed my lung capacity test first time and had to redo it a second time but I passed. Still here now since 7. No specific reason why I choose signals over other. Signals make more than others tho and I’m sure it’s probaly more challenging but I don’t think it can be that tough.

helper in signals starts 50 cents lower than helper in Power..Lighting is a nice spot with a lot of OT but Signals always on the tracks and under the spotlight..also i think Signals, your 1st 6 months is school or something like that..good luck brotha

As far as maintainers. They start off at $37 and end at that. That’s they flat rate but light maintainers start at $30 and gotta work 6 years to get to $36/37.
